When you combine multiple things into one 1 column (say !i.date!, !i.time!) a text sort is done — meaning the values in the column are looked at from left to right. Thus for example, Dec 27 sorts before Dec 8 because 2 is less than 8.

There are 2 ways around this:

  1. For schedule items, there is a field especially for this case, namely When Info. In other words, replace !i.date!, !i.time! with !i.when!.
  2. More generally this is what the Sort On dropdown menu is for. If you give the !i.date!, !i.time! column a Sort On of 2nd Value, and precede it with a !i.date! column whose Sort On is Hidden, both columns will sort numerically and you will get the desired result.
